> I have yet to see an example in a democratic nation where population can take a flag of another country or a colonial ruler in protest against their own country This was your assertion, word for word. You were given an obvious counterexample, and now you're deflecting to claim you only meant India? Here's another example: in New Zealand, burning the flag was most recently punished by... An NZ$500 fine. Nothing like what you're claiming. How about the UK? In 2011, 20-30 students publicly burned a large British flag. They got a verbal warning. Waving American flags is legal. How about Northern Ireland? Burning the flag is literally legal. Waving American flags: also legal. How about Japan? Once again, burning the Japanese flag is legal. Waving American flags: also legal. And as you know, the USA legally allows flag-burning as well, and waving whatever flag you want. > torture protestors Do you have any links/data regarding modern events to back up your extraordinary claims? > If USA or for that matter any country condemn China, they should do the same condemnation and restrictions on other country with same fervour Classic whataboutism.
